State projections for Covid-19

Certainly: locking down the populace and the economy, without any plans to take advantage of the resulting respite, is unacceptable.

Giving up and attempting to resume normal activity is also unacceptable, full stop.

The best/latest explanation I've seen is https://medium.com/@tomaspueyo/coronavirus-the-hammer-and-th.... Please read it (everyone, not just parent) if you haven't already.

Then if you're frustrated that your political leaders aren't moving to make best use of your sacrifice... let them know!

That article has been written by a growth hacker not an epidemiologist, and it does not start with that disclaimer. Please consider not spreading it.

Thanks for the link. Most involved read I've seen on strategy, but unfortunately for me I'm in the UK, so now I'm significantly more concerned than I was previously.

I will see what my MP has to say about it. Couldn't find a UK petition about it.
